Two Trick Pony: Stationery & Notecards

My husband and I recently purchased our first home (hurrah!) and I’ve spent most of the last couple of weeks filling my free time with demolition, renovation, and carpet annihilation. I’ve found that the best cure for spackle-sanding boredom is daydreaming about the future, and picturing the finished rooms filled with family and friends.

I may not be much of a cook (I leave that to Laurie Pony) but that’s something I want to change in 2010. Our previous home was one open space - perfect for large festivities - but the new house calls for more intimate gatherings. What better incentive for a dinner party than these incredible pop-up place mats from Publique Living? Since they’re paper, you can write your guests names directly on the pop-up!

They’re available at Velocity Home, or at Publique Living’s online shop.
